You: What kind of favor?
Whistler: Nothin' dramatic - I wanna buy a weapon from Fisk, he's one of the peddlers at the market.
Whistler: Thing is, he won't sell it to me. It's a broadsword, with pretty ornaments.
Whistler: I can give you a hundred nuggs, then you go fetch that weapon for me, without a word about who sent you.
You: Okay, give me that ore. I'll fetch the sword for you.
Whistler: Good. Here you are - come right back once you have it.
You: Aren't you worried I'm just gonna take those nuggets and make a run for it?
Whistler: Sure, you could do that. Just keep in mind the Colony is a small place, and I know mean bastards everywhere.
You: Why won't he sell you that sword?
Whistler: Uh, we've had a little ... argument.
You: About what?
Whistler: None of your business.
You: Hey. I'm new here.
Whistler: What d'you want?
You: Just checking who around here could use a hand.
Whistler: Meanin', you wanna join up with us and are tryin' to kiss some arses.
You: I got your sword.
Whistler: Eh, wasn't too hard, was it? Anyway, one hand washes the other.
Whistler: If Diego asks what I think about you, you got me vote. Stay alive until then.
Whistler: Hmph. Look who's come. Thought you could just take me nuggets and leg it, eh? Come here, lad!
You: Fisk will sell me the sword, but he now wants a hundred and ten for it.
Whistler: Oh, And now you want another ten nuggets ...
You: Do you want the sword or not?
Whistler: Fine, here. Now make it snappy.
You: Fisk won't sell me that sword. Here are your nuggets.
Whistler: Bloody idiot ... we got no use for a fool like you. Sod off.
Whistler: Where exactly are me nuggs? 'Cause I ain't seein' none. Get 'em back, or you're in deep fuckin' trouble.
You: How's it going?
Whistler: Good. Like I said, one hand washes the other - Diego will only hear the best from me.
